Developmental Coordination Disorder

Captions available

The idea

Developmental coordination disorder is a neurodevelopmental condition that impairs planning and carrying out coordinated movement, from tying laces to riding a bike.

In practice

A child who understands the rules of dribbling but cannot coordinate the movements.

Where people slip

Early intervention helps both skill and self-esteem. The DSM-5-TR name is developmental coordination disorder, not dyspraxia.
